Christmas Eve at the Farm

We're cooking gumbo (and the kitchen is filled with Gumbo Ya-Ya--"everyone talking at once"), but I wanted to stop a moment and share this Christmas Eve sunset.The sky is a gift, because it rained and rained all day, with whipping winds. And now, the farm is washed in clear, pear-colored light.My mother says she sees little angels, all of them stomping on the clouds, chasing them away.A few minutes later, the quality of light deepens to peachy gold.Happy Christmas.

The photos are beautiful, I think your mother and the angles chased the clouds up this way. It is warmer here but we have the clouds and a misty rain. I don't think you've been getting any of my emails, so I guess you didn't get my ecard, I'd like to wish you and yours a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR.

Did you know that MANY people SLEEP better when they see a pretty sunset? (Well, I sure do!). Please also share w/ your Mom that before I even read what you wrote, I immediately saw the big angel in the fourth pic~~~ halo and all!!! (I LIKE your Mom~ hope Santa's GOOD to her!!!!)~~~ Merry, merry Christmas Eve, dear Michael~ Hugs, Linda "and crew"
